[Fedora-electronic-lab] Community Questions
by John Rizzo
In the open source world there is easy to find a lot of choice for a given
application but most of the applications are usually not incredibly mature.
I think its great that someone is attempting to bring together the mature
open source packages around a given discipline. This is definitely
something that is sorely needed.
I think it would be even greater if this project was focused on the
integration and use of these applications in a distribution independent
manner.
So my question is; Is anyone interested in growing this project from a
"Fedora Electronics Lab" to a Open Electronics Lab? I would certainly be
happy to contribute my time to helping bring these applications to at least
one other distribution.

[Fedora-electronic-lab] Fedora is being bulky.
by Tom varghese
Hello there,
I feel fedora electronic lab become bulkier as number of programs increases.
Is there any way to build the .iso file with favourite programs only and
then download online?. This method is used by several other distro such as
'slax'

The difference between Archimedes and GSS is that Archimedes is a Montecarlo
simulator which can take into account all the relevant quantum effects.

[Fedora-electronic-lab] Fedora Electronic Lab support for openmoko hardware development
by Chitlesh GOORAH
Hello openmoko developers,
As part of our commitment to the opensource hardware community, Fedora
Project has a sub project called Fedora Electronic Lab.
http://chitlesh.fedorapeople.org/FEL/
Fedora Electronic Lab strives to provide a robust platform (based upon
solely opensource software) for electronic hardware development
platform for everyone. Since most of our users are also interested in
opensource hardware such as openmoko, etc.
Hence for Fedora-12 release, we have included the trunk version of
kicad, openocd, and fped. We hope that you, openmoko developers, can
now work out of the box with
svn co https://svn.openmoko.org/trunk/gta02-core/
cd gta02-core/
make update
make sch
instead of this time consuming process
http://svn.openmoko.org/trunk/gta02-core/docs/GETTING-STARTED
That said, we sincerely hope that our contribution might help you
seduce more contributors easily. We currently have the following list
of packages under the Fedora Electronic Lab umbrella for the following
architectures (i686,x86_64, PPC and PPC64):

If you feel that we still lack tools that are important to the
openmoko's development, please do not hesitate to let us know.
We also want to hear from you, how we can work together so that we can
provide you a proper development platform.
